Seriously people- am I the only one who thinks that Gaiman is not half as good a writer as he seems to believe he is..?

Loved the book, but maybe it's coming out too soon after the similarly themed Mirrormask?

Hate to burst your bubble Empire but that poster was online last week, on several sites.

Raclements: Gaimanís books, especially American Gods and his Sandman series, are amazing, and yes should come under the heading of "godlike genius"; dark, imaginative and funny. However, the film adaptation of Stardust was wet, sentimental and a massive disappointment; not to mention the frankly nauseating De Niro performance (I am barely keeping my coffee down even thinking about it). On the strength of Stardust, I would vehemently oppose the above titles being made into live action films, but the tone of things like Mirror Mask would translate well to animation (stop-motion or otherwise), so I am expecting plenty from Coraline.

Anything that Neil Gaiman is attached to is okay by me. Mirrormask was good (if a little unoriginal) - it was just a Alice in Wonderland story. Still was miles better than Terry Gilliams similar tale Tideland. Now a movie version/HBO mini series of American Gods please.
